More than 500 Letters of Demand Mailed

The Board mailed a Letter of Demand to each of the more than 500 North Carolina CPAs who failed to renew their licenses or request inactive status by July 1, 2018.

A Letter of Demand is a written request that the CPA renew his or her CPA certificate or request inactive status within 30 days of the date of the letter.

Failure of an individual to complete the license renewal or request inactive status within 30 days of the Letter of Demand automatically results in forfeiture of the CPA’s certificate, as required by NCGS 93-12(15).

Upon forfeiture of a certificate, the individual cannot use the CPA title in any way, and he or she must return his or her CPA certificate to the Board within 15 days of the notice of forfeiture.

The license renewal link and inactive status request link are in the “How Do I” box on the home page of the Board’s website, nccpaboard.gov. The online license renewal link will be available through July 31, 2018.

Third-Party Complaints: Preventing and Responding to Them

To fulfill its mandate of protecting the public interest by monitoring the behavior and performance of CPAs and CPAs firms, the Board investigates all alleged violations of the NC General Statutes and Administrative Code, including the Rules of Professional Ethics and Conduct.

When those violations are alleged in a complaint from an individual or entity separate from the Board, it is called a third-party complaint.

While all CPAs and CPA firms are at risk for being the subject of a third-party complaint, the following tips may reduce that risk.

Understand the Statutes and Rules. All licensees are responsible for knowing the current statutes, rules (Administrative Code), and professional standards and complying with them.

If you don’t understand a statute or rule or how it applies to you or your firm, ask the Board for an explanation or guidance.

Third-Party Complaintscontinued on page 5

When changes are made to the Board’s statutes and rules, those changes are published on the Board’s website, nccpaboard.gov, and in the Activity Review.

Make sure you keep up with changes to professional standards, pronouncements, and statements.

Know Your Professional Limits. As a CPA, you have experience with many types of engagements, but do you have the expertise to perform every engagement well?

If you have limited or no experience performing a type of engagement or have limited or no professional knowledge in that area, don’t accept the engagement.

This doesn’t mean you can’t expand the scope of your services; it means that you must acquire the professional knowledge to perform the engagement well.

Approved by the Board April 23, 2018.

Third-Party Complaints continued from page 1

In addition, do not take on work that your staff cannot perform well or that you cannot adequately plan and supervise.

Develop and Execute an Effective Engagement Letter. An effective engagement letter asserts the scope of the services to be provided, outlines the responsibilities of the client and practitioner, and explains the fees to be charged.

If you think engagement letters are unnecessary, it may surprise you that the Board has closed several cases because the licensees had well-written engagement letters that refuted the allegations made in the complaints.

The 07-2016 issue of the Activity Review includes an in-depth article on effective engagement letters.

Set Realistic Deadlines. When a client contracts with you for services, be realistic with the time frame for performing the work. If it takes you 10 days to perform a similar engagement, don’t tell the client that the engagement will be completed in five days.

If you are unable to complete an engagement within the specified time frame, tell the client as soon as possible. Document your conversation and follow up with an email, memo, or letter.

Take Relevant CPE. Continuing professional education (CPE) is intended to increase your professional competence so you can provide a high level of service to your clients.

You may be tempted to take easy, quick CPE to comply with the annual CPE requirement. Take courses that help you work smarter. Take classes that help you understand your clients’ businesses. Take courses that make you a more knowledgeable, skilled CPA.

Communicate with Your Clients. Lack of clear communication with your clients is a recipe for disaster. Respond to client phone calls and emails in a timely manner. Make sure your clients understand what you are telling them; don’t assume that they are fluent in accounting-speak.

Don’t Bury Your Head in the Sand. When you have a problem with an engagement or client, deal with it right away. Ignoring a seemingly small problem can easily turn into a situation that puts your license in jeopardy.

If you do have a problem with a client, document everything that happens; don’t rely on your memory. If the information is not in writing, it might be presumed to be hearsay or a “she said, he said” situation.

Even though you practice accounting in a competent, professional, and ethical manner, you are not immune from clients filing complaints with the Board. The following tips may help you better navigate the complaint process.

Do Respond to the Board’s Inquiry. When you are notified by the Board that a complaint has been filed against you or your firm, don’t panic. You will have ample opportunity to provide your side of the story.

The Board will ask you to submit, by a specified date, documentation (e.g., a copy of the engagement letter)that is relevant to the alleged violations. If you cannot respond by the specified deadline, let the Board know; the deadline may be extended.

By no means should you ignore the Board’s request for information. Doing so means the Board does not have the information it needs to make an informed decision, and failure to respond to the Board’s inquiry is a violation of 21 NCAC 08N .0206.

You may hire an attorney to handle the complaint, but you are not required to have legal counsel. If you do hire an attorney, let the Board know so that the Board can communicate directly with the attorney.

Do Respond in a Professional Manner. When a complaint is filed against you, you may feel attacked personally or think the complaint is without merit.

When providing the Board with the documents it has requested, make sure your written statements are clear and contain the facts of matter, not your opinion of the complainant or the credibility of the complaint.

Although the tips for avoiding a third-party complaint cannot guarantee that a complaint will not be filed against you or your firm, the tips for dealing with a complaint may make the process less overwhelming.

To learn more about the Board’s third-party complaint process, please review the Activity Review article, “How Does the Board Investigate and Resolve Third-Party Complaints?” posted on the Resources page of the Board’s website, nccpaboard.gov.

Contact the Board’s Staff Attorney, Frank Trainor, Esq., at [email protected] with specific questions about a complaint.
